All: ROC Sky Sweeper


Once we decided that Wild Weasel was going to be a part of our Night Force project, I started thinking about a ride for him. After all, what is a pilot if he has no aircraft to fly? I had a spare Rise of Cobra Sky Sweeper that I really did not know what to do with. To make it different from the Firebat and to give it a Night Ops flavor, I opted to paint it black, gray and red to match the vintage Night Raven.

I imagine it takes off vertically and the top-mounted SCRAMjet engines engage once the critical altitude is achieved. This allows the Night Attack Firebat to fly higher and faster out of the range of GI Joe air defenses, making it a perfect aircraft for night attacks and recon missions.
